AFH vendor guide

Listing photos & videos

Show buyers the complete look and the details that make it yours.

What to upload

  • Photos: 3-10 per listing. Include a full-look photograph and a closer detail photograph. Add another useful angle, such as the back, sides or sleeve details.
  • A person or a mannequin is fine. Show the actual garment being sold, with accurate colour, material and finishing.
  • Video: 10-60 seconds. Show a full 360-degree view: front, both sides and back. Turn slowly or move the camera around the mannequin; keep the complete garment in frame.
  • Uploaded listing videos play muted on AFH. Do not rely on music or spoken instructions. Put essential garment information in the listing description.
  • Use steady, clear shots and even lighting. Avoid filters that change the colour, slideshows instead of garment footage, or overlays that hide the outfit.

Framing reference only: this short clip needs a full 360-degree turn and a 10-60 second runtime before it could be uploaded.

On a mannequin: filming reference8.3 seconds · silent

A burgundy dress on a mannequin shows the full front and closer embellishment details.

Before you upload Framing reference only, not an upload-ready video. This clip is about 8 seconds and does not show a complete turn. Your listing video must be 10-60 seconds and include the front, both sides and back. Do not repeat or slow a short clip just to reach the minimum.
